JP, glad those helped - and 'yes' to your query.

Need some more help with the quote please. Author?

@u10 - it was a reported conversation rather than a quotation.

Quite similar in a way to that between Eric Morcambe and Andre Preview.

My goodness thats cryptic. Im playing all the right notes but not necessarily in the right order?

 

Question Author

So the words making up the quotation are not necessarily in the order they appear in the grid?

The quotation is not in the order of the clues although the first four words are.
What I meant was that it was about music and was a conversation between a great musician and a philistine.
